I would find out what is available for hire, for how much, etc. I would suggest renting everything from the same place. That will limit the choices of what you can rent.
SDI output is nice, but I have no idea how easy it is to rent. HDMI output seems to be popular in consumer/prosumer. both will need hardware to capture, like a black magic card, which will need a desktop to host the card. hdmi2usb can be used to capture hdmi into a laptop, but it currently does not capture audio, so you would need a usb audio device too.
